Seiko 6138-0040, September 1979. Fully restored functionally, all original case finish, dial, hands, movement.

• Original in all respects - dial, hands, case finish, insert, lume

• Austral-asian model, Roman / English daywheel

• 6138B movement fully serviced, timed and adjusted

• All new seals

• KVW 340W14GN00 Hardlex crystal

• Case shows signs of wear but no abuse. Sharp case lines, intact brushing. Case has never been polished.

• Lume glows but only for a short time. Some patina to the outer end of the minute hand lume.

• Movement spring is upgraded to a heavier-duty type (custom made here) to hold the movement firmly

• NOS stem installed

• Buttons are the “Piston” type from the 6138-001x models, rather than the smooth type intended for this model. These are service replacements and I have left them.

• Head only, but excellent quality reproductions of the original asymmetric bracelet are available for $29.99 USD on eBay.
